I have a problem with the commentator saying that nothing is pulling the casing out and its being pushed back by the gasses.

The gasses are pushing... the BCG.

This was an awesome video just when I didn't think there was anything more to learn about the m4/ar platform I got to watch the action operate in slow motion

but an ar has an extracor right?...i think his issue is with the "pulling" part of it.....the gasses PUSH the bcg...but the extractor PULLS the empty case out of the chamber...semantics as usual

I do not see what you are presenting.
when I click on the link. I get 2 second of an AR and then I am routed to some multi talk jibberish firing of a revolver.

My bad. Apparently I added a timestamp to the original link. It's fixed now... or you could press "replay" and it should start from the beginning.

He makes it sound like there is no need for an extractor.

He's describing a blowback system...but that was the one of the pair who knew much less, and then got controlled by the gun rather than the other way around.

very cool videos! the other videos they do are pretty good too, aside from mucking a few things up (terminology, misunderstanding of how an AR works..). Oh the time I would waste if I had a slow mo camera.....

I always love super slow motion videos
